Ombrex 1400W 3-in-1: what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- Very cheap way in: at around €26 one of the cheapest travel garment steamers with dry and steam function
- Self-cleaning function: flushes out limescale and residues, a sensible extra with hard water for longer service life
- Dry + 4 steam levels: versatile for different fabrics from silk to cotton, plus pure dry ironing
- Light at 0.75 kg: compact 24 × 5 × 7 cm and low weight make it a practical travel companion
- 90° swivelling soleplate: allows flat and vertical ironing without awkwardly turning the device
Points of criticism
- Small 110 ml tank: too small for longer ironing sessions, frequent refilling with larger amounts of laundry
- Contradictory specifications: the manufacturer mixes tank sizes of 100 and 110 ml; the real capacity is unclear
- No-name brand: with Ombrex, support and spare parts supply are hard to judge, factor that in at the low price
